Behind the scenes at my photoshoot for my website

Take a look at some of these pictures that were the behind the scenes images for kagem-tibaijuka.com, which is my personal website where I will be storing business ideas, content and offering business services to potential clients. When the images for the website are ready, I will definitely share them.

Images for my website were taken by Beautiful Imperfectionz, a dope Tanzanian photography company – check them out!

The rise of style blogs by black women

The glossy world of stylish black fashionistas

If you read the western media, you would think style blogs are just for European women but there is a fast rising overclass of black women who know what they want and they are showing off their fashion style with aplomb through style blogging. From Angolan fashion superstar Soraya de Carvalho to edgy fashionista Fennella Miller, there are some true gorgeous pictures and outfit ensembles which show what we have always known: black women are stylish glamazons who are taking their rightful place as leaders of fashion. Claire from The Fashion Bomb was one of the first I can remember who showcased black fashion style and now there are many many fashionists who share their websites with rich and textured websites like Black and Killing It as well as mainstream media like Grazia magazine and Vogue Italia. London is definitely my favourite when it comes to locations for style bloggers of African origins including Melissa of Melissa’s Wardrobe who has some lovely outfits and excellent taste in footwear.

Where you can find these stylish black women?

Bag of the Month: Hot pink satchel from the Cambridge Satchel Co

 

Wow what a gorgeous slice of bag heaven! I love the look of this bag. It retails for over 100 quid. How gorgeous though, considering one as a daily bagger! Love it!

 

Cocktail Hour

Went out for cocktails last night with friends and these are the rings I wore. I am trying to put more effort in my looks in my aim to look nice. What do you think?

 

Royal Blue

Royal Blue Ring – I got this from Primark years ago for a quid or so, and I found it in my wardrobe recently and I put it on today. I love the deep colour of the ring itself. I had never been into rings that much but they really do perk up a look.

I need cheering up these days!

Afro + Jewellery + NARS Exhibit A Blush with a slick of lipgloss
